VICTORIA, BC – Driftwood Brewery has just released Spring Rite, a new limited Belgian-style ale brewed with using local barley:
The second of our 100% local malt series. Inspired by the Abbey ales of Belgium, the base malt is an artisan barley that is grown and malted on the Saanich Peninsula (as close to the brewery as we can get). Finishing with a healthy dose of floral hops and the distinct funk of brettanomyces yeast, Spring Rite will continue to evolve with some aging.
Driftwood Spring Rite is available now in 650 ml bottles at select retail outlets in and around Victoria and Vancouver.
